Pole Danicng Grip Aids

I know this is a long shot, but I thought I'd try. I am a pole dancing instructor and the owner of our studio has expressed that we should not allow students to use grip aids. So for any pole dancers or pole dancing instructors I have a question. Do you use grip aids? Do you allow students to use grip aids? If so under what circumstances do you use them/allow their use? Finally, what is your favorite grip aid to use? Thanks.

Hello earthpanther,
This topic is really interesting. I wish I knew the answer to your questions, but sorry. All I can say is that I've always wanted to try pole dancing. It's a pretty effective exercise I must say - based on TV and my friends who have tried it.
It tones the muscles well and it boosts our confidence. Plus, it's very sexy. I like it so much.
I hope more myLotters share their knowledge in pole dancing and grip aids.
Good luck and a happy Lotting evening =)
